This is just another example of how we are all just as self-absorbed as the next person.
We’re all too busy talking to each other to even realize we’re being self-absorbed.
If you’re like most of the people that read this, you’re probably pretty busy and don’t know what to do with yourself when you’re not talking to other people. That’s why the most likely reason for being self-absorbed is that you’re too busy to care about anything else.
We get it. Youre not interested in other people. Thats why you keep bringing up your boyfriend. But hey, if youre like most of the people that read this, youre probably not a very good friend. No matter how much you like someone, you like them more when youre not talking to them. The more you talk to them, the more you like them.
The problem is that you’re talking too much. If youre talking to just a handful of people, you’re probably better off just being a total asshole. But if you dont seem to mind doing that, then you’ll probably be okay with a certain level of self-absorption. When youre not talking to other people, youre probably not really interested in them, or you’re just not interested in them.
A good way to gauge your interest level is to take the things you like about someone and see if you actually like them. If you get a lot of those things from someone in your life, you probably are going to like them more if you aren’t talking to them (and you should).
But if you stop talking to them, you may not like them all that much. And if you don’t like them all that much, you may not care about them at all.
This is a pretty simple thing to do, but it’s important. If you’ve never taken the time to figure out what you like about someone before you talk to them. Then you might not like them. If you’re talking to someone that you just met and you’re not really sure if you like them or not. Maybe you like them a lot, maybe you don’t.
I say this because I have a friend who I think likes me a lot. Although, she was engaged to someone before she moved in with me. And we’ve only been friends for a few weeks, but she’s a pretty great person. She’s very down to earth, and she lives in a small house in a nice neighborhood. She doesn’t have much money, but she’s trying to do the right thing by her family and her new relationship.
I could be wrong about this, but I think I read somewhere that this is a thing that you can’t really change (like a person who is born with certain traits). If so, this makes me feel pretty bad, because I would have been a really awesome friend to her.
